Word! How 'bout the lowdown on them "weekly" Buell rides you mentioned in another post? Is there like a group of you'ze guy'ze that get together regularly? I ain't too far from ya' and would love to find some other Buells to roll with. Also, does your shop stock Buell parts? Mostly things like tank badges, frame pucks, stickers. I gotta buy some stuff. Ordering sucks, I don't wait well.

We just got a load of the stickers, hats, tshirts and all that new swag that spring leaves you wanting. WE do ride every week barring snow or ice, or errant trips out of town. Usually in the off season it is just a couple of us hard core whackos that like to get some mud on the tyres, but that is fun too. With spring coming, come join us down at the shop. We leave usually at 530, check our web site for the revolving destination. Saintly, glad you got your package, I figured you were in for a lil layna't as our southern friends say for the delay on the dash. I got the orange one signed by Erik, it goes in the bike tomorrow. I cannot simply say enough nice things about Bud and the crew at Hal's. If you need a rental, want some tremendous hospitality and a great shop to visit. Stop by. A real class act that raises the bar for the rest of us to all follow. Thanks Bud! Sorry I missed you Steve, looking for the pics of the build though. Hatchet, Pm sent, check your myspace. I hope to have the powdercoated wheel tomorrow. And the knit watch cap with your name on it is at my desk. : D

You ought to come over for Homecoming this year. I'm sure I could find ya a couch to crash on here.

Good to hear you had a great time. I ordered some stuff from Hal, great guy, he called me personally to make sure he got the order right and make sure I was happy. Great guy, really nice. Don't know about that 5:30 leave time. I work in Olympia and don't get off work 'till 5. How fast do these 'Bolts run in rush hour? See, now I need to split lanes here!

Tim ,
See the nice thing about a roving destination, is that we can come out to your area ! I hear "That Place" is always a great biker food throw down, and the back roads are very scenic. We could meet you down that way, so you could show us your neck of the woods. (we have ridden longer on weeknites once the sun stays up late)

See, you guys are soooo nice! I feel all warm and fuzzy inside! ;) Well, I live in Tacoma, work in Oly'. But we can figure something out. As for my ride, it's all in pieces while I repaint! So now the rush is on to get it back together, but I don't want to rush the paint, that is never good! Too much stress, I want my bike, I can't take it! AAARRRGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Tim and Brian!
Keep me in the loop, I'd love to meet up with you guys and take a trip out to Silverdale on some weekend. I haven't had the chance to get out there and check out the dealership or meet Brian and the Buell crew. I'm located in Bonney Lake, so I'm not to far from either of ya. I'm having a hard time finding any fellow Buellers in my area. Nothing but metrics and cruisers!
Thanks,
Scott

Drag some of the metric riders out with you, Our sport bike rides are open to all brands. (besides it helps us to get those conquest deals) We have some great roads out our way, and are working on a few up and coming big quarterly rides. : D Just gotta get the Marketing guy to spend the money for the sponsorship and we will have our own banner here.... : | Some things never happen fast enough

I finally got a chance to put your old dash face on my firebolt. It looks pretty damn good!





Thanks again.

Hey Brian,
Thanks for the great comments. It's been busy this last week. Finally had our first rental of the season go out yesterday-it's supposed to be 68 degrees here today. I am looking forward to seeing the dash all together!! Great time with you last week. Lets do it again sometime. Thanks for taking the time to stop by. Keep the rubber down and ride safe.

BudC , I got my owner to agree that if we sell out of all the 07's I can get to come to homecoming : D We did that last year, so we shall see. Getting time off in the summer while working in the biz is almost damn impossible. The dash is posted above, it worked great (looks like Saintly's did too ) Damn weather. Thanks again for all the help when I was in town. If you are ever out this way... you got a bike and some twisties to take waiting for you.

They are military buy backs from guys that are going over seas and not going to be back for at least 18 months. Happens to us several times since 9/11 with the Harleys. This is the first time with the Buellers, and a pair at a time. Both in the same unit, and a pair of good guys to ride with. I hope they come back safe and in time for the new 09's : D

Brian,
I'm waiting to find out about a job I have been interviewing for. The last (3rd) interview is on Monday. If I get this job I intend on buying that TT you have, providing it is still there. Keep your fingers crossed!

LOL! I spent way too much money Sunday! Thanks again Brian! Was nice to see a shop that actually had Buell stuff in stock. Hopefully the weather gets better soon so I can ride! What happened to Al Gore and his Global Warming? Are they gonna be stopping by here any time soon?

Hey Brian,
Thought you'd want to see this-Steve picked up the TT tonight. Yes, those are all the parts he needs for the project. He's going to break in the bike this weekend and then start tearing it down. Stay tuned!

Look out Steve, Thomas can just about touch the pegs, and I can put side wheels on it for him under you saddlebags so he can ride!: )
Your project sounds awesome, can't wait to see it.

Congrats Steve. Keep us updated on the progress. I just got my pelican cases today, and my ventura rack is coming in a couple of weeks. That will get me my baggage issues solved. That is as close as I get to "touring"

Finally the weather is getting nice, and it is time to ride the roads that are paved a lil more often to push for some longer distances. I feel a Pacific Coast ride coming soon. : D
